The movie is really going far deep into the rabbithole. John Connor is not really the big hero that he was destined to be. Terminators can not adopt human behaviors not even after living with them for 44 years, but they will get old.

The movie had several similarities with tscc. In the pilot Sarah, John and Cameron time travels from 1999 to 2007 and end up on a freeway. In Genisys Kyle and Sarah time travels from 1984 to 2017 and end up on a freeway. Arnold also share a similar scen as Cameron from S1E2 where she crashes into the front window of a car.

Emilia Clarke makes a good Sarah Connor, I am not sure about the rest of the cast. I did not have any high expectations on the movie so I am not disappointed.

We have been watching the genesis of ...Genisys since Terminator 5 and 6 have been announced (justin Lin was supposed to direct the movie at the time) in a dedicated thread in this forum: Terminator 5 and 6

Terminator Genisys will be released in France in July 1st and I will watch it in theater, of course.

I get a lot of messages from fans on Twitter mentioning the references to TSCC in Genisys. Judging by what they say, there's too many uncanny similarities to make this just a coincidence. Is it copying or tribute, hard to say. Maybe Genisys writers mentioned in an article they loved TSCC, which would explain everything.

Looks like you have not seen the movie by the time you wrote this. I'd say TSCC references are essential for the movie.

By the way I enjoyed the movie. I did not expect anything even close to the level of T1 and T2, so I just relaxed and had fun. Hopefully we'll get something serious after James Cameron and Josh Friedman finish with Avatar. Meanwhile I would rather have fun watching Genisys and it's sequels than simply spend years waiting.

Cameron: My brother says if you want to be good at anything, you have to practice every day.

I tweeted Skydance asking if their female writer, Laeta Kalogridis, could put some of her writing expertise in to creating a relationship between Kyle & Sarah for the benefit of the female audiences and of course many males, like myself. I know they read it, because they clicked on 'favourited'.
